Udupi, Feb 1: By arresting a Hindu Jagarana Vedike (HJV) activist, Udupi district police have cracked two cases – pelting stone at a mosque at Adi Udupi and stabbing two Muslim auto-rickshaw drivers at Karavali Circle in the wee hours of January 29.

The accused has been identified as Ankit Poojary (28), hailing from Kumpala in Mangaluru taulk. An active member of HJV, he is an accused in a few communal cases in Vittla and surrounding areas in Bantwal taluk.

According to police sources, Poojary committed the crimes when he had visited his in-law's house in Pandubettu near here.

The police zeroed in on Poojary after examining a CCTV footage of a man pelting stones at the mosque. The CCTV camera installed outside the mosque had clearly captured the crime that occurred in the intervening night of January 28 and 29.

Minutes before pelting stone at the mosque, Poojary had stabbed two people and killed one among them. It is learnt that Poojary, who was riding a motorbike, picked up a quarrel with an auto-rickshaw driver, Haneef, who was returning home.

All of a sudden, Poojary stabbed 54-year-old Haneef with a knife. When another auto-rickshaw driver, Shabbeer (55), noticed this and rushed to help Haneef, the assailant stabbed him too and fled the spot. While Haneef died on the spot, Shabbeer suffered severe injuries.

who knows with immense pressure from policticans he might have been framed ..becoz ruling party needs one particular community votes and we know how murders of prashanth poojari and vaman poojari ( witness in murder ) got closed .vaman poojaris death shown as suicide .prashanth poojari murder cases all accused are getting acquitted .one jihadi who shouted islamic war cry while butchering our prashant poojari was standing next to abhaya chandra jain ... so conspiracy theory cannot be ruled out ... ankit is just accused and he is not proven guilty , so let our court decide who is culprit ... we dont talk in rubbish language like hang him , shoot him ... as we are not living in third rated countries , which asks proof from males if rape has hapened ...such a pathetic rules ...long live sangh parivar ... jaio sri ram

These Billava boys are brain washed by RSS leaders. Why can't they brain wash their own children for such criminal act? No they will send their children to abroad for higher studies and for job.

Billava leaders must open their mind and guide their youngsters the real motto of these RSS leaders and keep them away from their bhakthi. etc.

Bengaluru, Jul 19: A viral video claiming to show crowded condition of a hospital treating COVID-19 patients in the city was found to be false with police on Sunday arresting a person for allegedly circulating it on social media.

Police said such videos have the potential to create panic and asked people to refrain from spreading them.

The arrest was made within hours of the police announcing registration of a case in connection with the video that showed a crowd of people wearing masks at an "outpatient ward" of a hospital, falsely identified as Victoria Hospital, a major dedicated COVID facility here.

The video went viral on social media.

"City Crime Branch swiftly identified and arrested this person who has been circulating false videos of panic in Victoria Hospital, Bangalore. Kudos to all doctors and medical professionals who are doing their best. False news busted," Bengaluru Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao tweeted.

Police said such videos have the potential to create panic in society and asked people to refrain from it.

"Covid False video about conditions of hospitals in Bangalore circulated on social media. Case registered in Cybercrime PS. While government, society at large fighting the pandemic, some are creating/forwarding messages/videos which has potential to create panic in society. Refrain from it," Joint Commissioner of Police, Crime, Sandeep Patil tweeted.

The video showed scores of people wearing masks gathered in a small space allegedly at an Out-Patient Department in a hospital, and a person filming it, claiming to be a doctor expressing concern that it was a threat to all medical staff, including the patients.

Official sources said the video was reportedly from a hospital in one of the northern states and not from Victoria Hospital.
